Who Is Quinton Anderson Reynolds?

Quinton Anderson Reynolds is the adopted son of actor Burt Reynolds and actress Loni Anderson. He was born on August 31, 1988, and is the only spawn of his adoptive father.

Reynolds and Anderson adopted their son in 1988, the same year they married. The son's childhood was reportedly rocky, as he witnessed his father physically and emotionally abuse his mother. Both parents blame each other for the wrongdoing, but according to Anderson, her husband repeatedly beat her. He also supposedly had an affair. Following the couple's divorce, Anderson required a nanny's presence for all of her ex-husband's visits with their adopted son, citing the boy's fear of him.
